Join the Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive: Rachel needs helpers on Saturday
Our small team in San Francisco is running the Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive and needs volunteers for set-up, serving and clean-up.

Every year the Neighborhood Winter Coat Drive brings together 152 neighbors in San Francisco. I help organize it with 12 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down.
We need people for set-up, serving, translation and clean-up. Shifts are two to three hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers.
It's a long-standing tradition, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day.
If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
